SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER ONE: NEW AGE ACTIVATION IN A NEW WORLD
“Run Melonie,” my mother’s friend, Evy, screamed out, causing me to jump in fear.I stood there frozen, scared to move. My face crumpled like a piece of paper, my eyes welled up in tears as I stumbled backward, as if punched in the gut.I stared at my mother, Maela, who was swallowed in sweats, fighting off some unexpected, scary animals.“Melonie, you need to leave, run and hide. I promise to explain everything to you…RUN,” my mother, Maela, screamed.It was my eighteenth birthday; I had just returned from my party only to meet them fighting monsters.“Is that a werewolf?” I thought to myself, shivering in fear.The fight was toxic, and I felt like that thing was aiming at me for a reason.Having no choice other than to flee from the scene, I dashed out of the house at full speed.“What were they?” I murmured, frightened.Hurrying back to my birthday party, I looked around for my best friend, Arlo, when I got hit by a young man, more like he was trying to pass through me but couldn't.

The death of my mother took a lot from me, but the fact that I woke up one morning to celebrate my birthday only to discover that I was wanted in an unseen world brutally was even more draining, scary and exhausting.“We need to go now,” Arwan sounded behind me, dragging me back into the reality i was avoiding.“What?” I asked in disappointment.“I said, we need to leave,” he retorted.“Can you please deactivate that thing that is making you invisible? I need to see you properly,” I requested sarcastically.“Melonie, we need to leave, we don’t have much time,” Arwan calmly stated.“My mother just died,” I yelled.“And you will die too if you don’t snap out of it,” he yelled back.“Do you not have feelings…Arwan?” I asked out of nowhere, shocked at how no one cared that a young girl had just lost her only parent.“I'm sorry, but my mission here is to save you. In peace or pieces, dead or alive. and yes; I dont have emotions,” he retorted, carelessly.“What?” I yelled in shock as he grip

I went ice-cold, horrified, some news is just too thick to be accepted.I felt like I had been dropped into a dark abyss, with no safety net to catch my fall.“I-I- I am- what did you say I am?” I stammered, refusing to accept whatever she had just said.“I’ll move on to the next question,” She retorted, uninterested in repeating what she said a few seconds ago.“A lot of things are after you, those that killed your Mundane parents are Apex predators,” she stated.“I already know that… I guess they came for me, didn’t they?” I retorted.“Who sent them to find me?” I asked, in an attempt to know who my enemies were.“Don’t waste your time, Melonie, your enemies are too many, you can’t name them all,” she declared.“Who commanded those things to kill my mother?” I yelled out in fury.“And what would you do? What can you do?” She asked and scoffed.“Tell me,” I retorted.“Your father, your real father… he wants you dead,” she blurted out.I felt like I'd been punched in the gut. The words

“But ma… you said she was welcome. Her mother was also one of us,” Clara argued.“That was her mother, Clara. She’s more dangerous than you can ever imagine,” she retorted.“But you don’t know that yet, you can’t just treat her like a dog,” Clara insisted.“Who’s she, Clara?” I managed to ask.“She’s Mrs. Hunter, her family leads the institute,” Clara yelled.“We are not treating her like a dog, Clara, we are simply putting her where she belongs for now,” Mrs. Hunter retorted.“She doesn’t belong in a cage, and you know it,” Clara responded.“I have lived hundreds of years, and not even once have I made a wrong choice, so you have to trust me on this one too. I won’t do anything to cause trouble to the institute my family governs. Melonie here is the daughter of our enemy, Warrick Aeron…you don’t know how dangerous she is,” Mrs. Hunter replied, and with that, she turned away without looking back, with men pulling me behind her.Rough hands grabbed my arms, holding me in a vice-like gri
Last Updated : 2024-08-16SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER FIVE: MY REALITY WAS A LIE.
MELONIE'S POV:I stormed out persistently, with an unstoppable force. Nobody dared to walk closer, talk me out of it, or stop me. They all stood far away from me, shivering in fear like a cold chicken.Everything I needed and wanted to know; I was ready to find out… alone! I was determined, that if my father wanted me dead, then let him kill me now.Realizing I have such extreme powers, made me even more eager to get into trouble.Suddenly, a hand gripped my arm, firm. I looked back doubtfully and got the shock of my life. My best friend stood there, gawking at me fearlessly.“Arlo?” I called out, surprised.“Melonie,” he responded calmly.I jingle my head doubtfully, “Wh - what are you doing here?” I stammered.“I'm here to stop you from making the biggest mistake of your life Melonie,” he blurted out firmly.I blinked repeatedly, still not getting it, “That's not what I mean. You are human, you cannot be in this world to begin with,” I retorted positively.“But I am here. I'm not hu

MELONIE'S POV:I grabbed Clara by the hand, “let's go in,” I stated and she smiled at me warmly.Arlo also came forward, “Where are you going?” He asked curiously.“Where else, dummy? Should I remain out here? I was told this whole building was mine. And please, stop monitoring me already, it's not like I can leave this place,” I retorted, rolling my eyes.“Hey!” Arwan called and I froze, “We begin training tomorrow morning, get ready,” he announced firmly.“Don't tell me what to do, you heartless kidnapper,” I growled and walked away, dragging Clara along.We got in and I picked my room, Clara also picked hers and so did Arlo and Arwan.Arwan's room was opposite mine, Clara's was beside and Arlo's was opposite Clara's.“Oh my God! I've never had a room since I was born here,” Clara Swooned delightfully.I looked at my well-prepared room; I was satisfied with it, but I still wasn't satisfied with the new, strange world.We went down for dinner and after dinner, I stormed straight to my

MELONIE'S POV:I gawked at him, and he gawked back, “Do you understand Melonie?” He repeated with a serious face, and I calmly nodded in response.He has high cheekbones, a strong jawline and a small button nose. His piercing eyes spackle with warmth and kindness, fringed with thick lashes that add to his allure.His hair, is thick, dark and messy, with a subtle wave that adds texture and depth.He has broad shoulders, a toned physique and a tall athletic build that commands attention. He excludes confidence and self-assurance without being arrogant or entitled. He is charismatic and charming, with a magnetic presence that draws people in. Accomplice with an angelic and baby-looking face and soft, white skin that would make you want to tame him.I stared at his bottom lip that was calling for my attention and I quickly looked away, my cheeks turning red, “You are too close,” I muttered.He pushed me away, clearing his throat to ease the awkward atmosphere. “All I'm saying is, from now

MELONIE'S POV:Arwan's statement replayed in my head, my giant fear stood tall, my heart beating in horror.If Mrs. Hunter dies, I'm in trouble, if I fight back, I'm still in trouble.“Fuck this!” I murmured, biting my lips, “What do I do?”I paced around the room, my mind was a jumble of thoughts, each one tangled and twisted, making it impossible to think clearly.I walked over to Clara's room, knocking on the door, “Clara it's me,” I called out.Everywhere went silent, I got no reply, “Clara,” I called again with a pleading voice.“Go away Melonie,” her voice rang out.“Please Clara, I need you right now, we need to talk,” I begged desperately.Everywhere grew silent again and then I heard a click.“Clara I'm sorry, I know you are mad at me,” I stated as Clara unlocked the door. She stared at me calmly, “I'm not mad at you Melonie… I'm just - Anxious and…”“I know. And I'm anxious too, I'm at the centre of all this trouble. How do you think I feel,” I explained.“That's why you ha

SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER EIGHTY-THREE: WHERE IS ASHERA?
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I sat on the edge of my bed; my hands clenched into fists as I waited for the news. My mind was racing with tons of things that could go wrong, and my heart was pounding in my chest like a drum.I couldn't shake the feeling of dread that had been building up inside me for a while. The outcome of this moment would determine the course of the future.Who found Ashera? Arwan or Alastor? The thought sent a wave of anxiety crashing over me, making my skin crawl and my breath catches in my throat.As I waited, my mind replayed every possible scenario, each one more disastrous than the last.My emotions were a mix of fear and worry, making it hard to think straight.The room around me seemed to fade away, leaving only the sound of my own ragged breathing.And then, suddenly, the silence was broken, Arwan appeared in my room with the help of a portal.“What are you doing here?” I voiced in fear, gasping. “If Alastor finds you here, you will be smoked and chopped into cubes
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER EIGHTY-TWO: ASHERA'S GRAVE.
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀It's different when someone thinks you belong to him, rather than loving you enough to protect you from leaving.In Alastor's case, I can't tell if he's just a lunatic obsessed with me or if he simply believes that I'm his, but doubtlessly, I was aware he did love me. It wasn't a brotherly love, he loved me like I was his, his property… his mate.He walked into the room with a smile on his face, “Melonie,” he called and I looked up to meet his gaze, “There's a place I need to be.”I nodded in understanding, “Okay Alastor, be good and be back quickly. Do you need me to go with you?”“No,” he responded, “It's safer for you to remain here, I don't want you to get hurt. Don't run away from me Melonie… please.”“You need to trust me Alastor,” I whispered calmly.“I do trust you,” he responded, “I am just scared, I'm scared of you leaving me… I don't know how I survived all this while without you, but I'm not willing to go through that again.”“Put your mind at rest,” I
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER EIGHTY-ONE: ASHERA.
🥀 ARWAN'S POV 🥀We all gathered in the hall, gawking into space, “Aren't we going to find her?” Clara asked.“I was told not to, she's safe there… Alastor won't hurt her,” I responded calmly.“How can you be so sure?” Lavanya asked with raised eyebrows.“I'm not sure,” I retorted, “I'm hoping he won't lay a finger on her or I'll truly kill that bastard.”“What if she decides to be with him?” Alpha Vargus reasoned out, “I mean you practically killed her son a day ago.”“She won't,” Bruno announced, “I know Melonie won't betray us for any reason.”“Bruno, what do you know about Ashera?” I asked, facing Bruno, “We were told to find Ashera before Alastor lay his hands on it.”“It's an extremely powerful ancient sword, named after the first Ancient Lycanthropic dragon to become a dragon, a god. It was said that anyone who wields the swords would possess powers he shouldn't have and control what he shouldn't be able to control,” Bruno announced.“I know that little about it,” I responded
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER EIGHTY: MY TWIN MATE.
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I woke up in an unfamiliar room. I looked around, trying to remember where I was and how I had gotten there.“Alastor,” I muttered.“Hi twin sister,” Alastor's voice rang out, “You were out for a while, I feared that you were dead.”“And why would I be dead?” I asked coldly, “Do you perhaps want me dead so desperately?”“Never!” Alastor barked, “I would never want anything to happen to you, Melonie. You don't know how long I have waited to meet you or how hard it was for me without you.”“What rubbish is he spewing now,” I thought.Alastor walked towards me, and in a swift movement, his hands were on my face, “My Melonie,” he called softly and sweetly, “Finally. I get to hold you.”“What are you talking about now?” I asked, pushing him away to avoid his weird acts.He dragged me closer to himself, and this time it was firmer and clearer, “You are mine.” He whispered in my ears.“What are you doing?” I fought back, my heart beating rapidly.“You know, I kept asking
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE: WHY NOW?
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀My heart skipped a beat as I felt a shiver run down my spine. Finally, the person I was warned about had decided to show up, the evil side of me that feeds on nothing but destruction.He was taller than I had expected, with piercing eyes that seemed to bore into my soul. His smile was charming, but it didn't quite reach his eyes, leaving me with a sense of unease.I felt a surge of adrenaline as I stood frozen, unsure of what to do next. Part of me wanted to turn and run, to get as far away from him as possible. But another part of me was curious, wanting to know more about this being who had sparked so much fear and fascination.As I stood there, he began to move towards me, his eyes never leaving mine. I felt a sense of trepidation, unsure of what to expect. Was he going to hurt me, or was he just going to try and charm me?I took a deep breath and stood my ground, trying to appear braver than I felt. As he approached me, I could feel my heart pounding in my ches
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT: I DON'T REALLY LIKE JOKES.
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I stood frozen, my ears ringing with the crazy words I heard but was trying to unhear.The room around me seemed to fade away, and all that was left was the sound of my own heartbeat, pounding in my chest like a drum.The words themselves seemed to echo through my mind, a cruel and heartless refrain that I couldn't shake. "I buried him." "He's better off dead." "That's what's best for all of us."All the air was knocked out of me. My lungs burned, and my eyes stung with tears that I couldn't hold back.I tried to speak, to ask for clarification or to plead for a different outcome. But my voice was caught in my throat, and all that came out was a strangled sob.I felt like my world had been shattered, like everything I thought I knew had been turned upside down. I was left standing amidst the wreckage, trying to make sense of the ruins.As the reality of the situation began to sink in, I felt a wave of grief wash over me. It was a heavy, crushing weight that consume
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN: GROWING TOO FAST.
🥀 ARWAN'S POV 🥀As I stood there, my mind racing with thoughts of the unknown, I couldn't shake off the feeling of dread that had settled in the pit of my stomach. The development of this child, who had been delivered a few days before, was already too advanced; he was like a year old in two days.My heart was racing, my palms were sweating, and worst-case scenarios consumed my thoughts. What if this is the worst mistake we could ever make? What if this child is nothing but sorrow? What if we die in the process? I felt anxious, scared, and overwhelmed. I just wanted to hide, to escape from the uncertainty and the fear that was gripping me. But I knew I couldn't. I had to face my fears, to push through the anxiety and find a way to make it work.I gawked at the baby in Lavanya's arms. She was scared but the fact that she was staring at the child seemed to calm her down.Arlo walked into the room, Clara rushing behind, “Why did you stop?” Clara yelled.Arlo looked back at her and sm
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX: IS IT GOOD OR EVIL?
🥀 ARWAN'S POV 🥀The room fell silent as our eyes fixed on the unbelievable sight before us. Gasps and whispers filled the air as we all struggled to comprehend what we were seeing.The baby seemed to defy explanation, a mesmerising sight that drew in every gaze like a magnet. It was as if time itself had frozen, leaving only stunned silence and awestruck stares.My mouth hung open, and my face was pale with wonder. Lavanya's eyes were wide with excitement, and her pupils dilated as she took in every detail.Clara looked like she was about to faint, her legs trembling beneath her as she struggled to remain upright.“I'll take the child and clean him up,” Lavanya blurted out, stretching her arms.I gawked at her, “Be careful Lavanya.”“Oh c'mon,” she snapped back, “He's just a cute little baby.”“That eats flesh and blood,” Alpha Vargus added, causing Lavanya to roll her eyes.“Wh -why does he look like… an angel?” Clara muttered.I looked at Melonie, she was unconscious. The witch no
SHADOWED SALVATION CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE: A LOT BETTER.
🥀 MELONIE'S POV 🥀I felt more alive, it was as if blood was the medicine I should have taken since the beginning of my horrifying pregnancy. I looked down at the empty bowls of blood on the ground. I could tell that such an amount of blood didn’t come from one or two people, it definitely came from tons of people and lives.They say blood is the life force that flows through mortal veins and the essence of life itself, so why blood? I looked at my growing belly, my hunger and thirst did not stop, but I wasn’t hungry for food or water, I was hungry for blood. The same thing that disgusted me, but somehow, I was enjoying it.It did disgust me, but it didn’t disgust the child I was carrying.“Should I really give birth to this child?” I thought, “What if I’m making a mistake because I don’t want my daughter dead? What if I’m protecting this child because of the fact that I’m the one carrying it?I reached for another bowl of blood, gulped it down without thinking twice, and felt even
